Raid Hour (also referred to as Legendary Raid Hour) started as an experiment in March 2019.

I’ve seen every event, character, and concept that’s come through Fire Emblem Heroes and yet I never would’ve expected this. The next set of special heroes has been revealed, no pun intended, as being themed to Plegia – the desert country featured in Fire Emblem Awakening. Interestingly, only one character…
Following Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp’s festive-themed Workshop Cookie last month, we’re now settling into midwinter with a beautiful icy theme with Sprinkle’s Crystal Cookie. As always, each cookie contains a random item, with a variety of new furniture pieces and clothing players can unlock. The Ice-Palace Balcony item is the…

Can you believe Valentine’s Day is only a month away now? I’m a firm believer in chocolates, but all you flower fans who Gotta Catch ‘em All are in luck. Pokémon GO has announced what its February Community Day offering is going to be, and it’s a flowering cutie with…

Mario may be the star of the Mushroom Kingdom show, but that just means his little bro can do things that super star can’t. Case and point – Lederhosen Luigi. While I’m sure there’s an obscure piece of art where Mario’s donned this German garb, Luigi’s the one…

Recently, though, a promotion from The North Face and Gucci has caused some confusion and well-earned criticism. Announced in late December, it was revealed that The North…
Announced this morning, Dragalia Lost has revealed it’s next crossover event. Joining a list that includes Fire Emblem Heroes, Mega Man, and Monster Hunter is none other than Persona 5!

Dragalia Lost has been ring-a-linging in 2021 with the return of Hinomoto vibes for about a week now. On top of plenty of events, bonuses, and free summons was the Cursed Connections raid event. Like some previous holiday events, they decided to split the new characters between a pair of…
Thracia 776 may be a follow up/side story to the gripping Genealogy of the Holy War, and yet in my experience it’s the least talked about Fire Emblem by a large margin. Doesn’t help it was never localized, and yet it just doesn’t seem to grab even diehard fans. It…
